Before & after

The judgment stayed with the analysts. The typing did not.

Memo preparation is high-repetition, high-detail work. It has to be precise, and precision was costing hours that analysts could have spent on judgment.

"What used to be a grind is now mostly review and polish."

  • ✕Memos drafted manually, every time
  • ✕Cap table data extracted by hand, requiring precision and speed
  • ✕Consistency checks and formatting QA eating analyst hours
  • ✕Deliverables varying in style across funds

Skilled people, doing assembly.

Where analyst hours went
Drafting manual
Cap table data by hand
Formatting QA per deliverable

Three repetitive steps between the deal and the memo.

Lindy drafts the memo from structured deal input, pulls the numbers out of the cap table, and applies the same formatting every time.

  • ✓Memos generated from structured deal input
  • ✓Key data extracted and formatted from cap tables
  • ✓One consistent style across every deliverable
  • ✓Analysts reviewing rather than drafting

Drafts usable more than nine times out of ten.

How it runs now
Lindy drafts, extracts, formats

The team still owns the judgment. It no longer owns the typing.

Results

What VC CFO reported after adopting Lindy

  • 6–8 hrsBack every week — memo creation went from hours to minutes.
  • 90%+First drafts usable from day one, needing review rather than rewriting.
  • One styleDeliverables standardised across funds rather than varying by author.
  • Same teamOutput scaled without adding analysts.

In fund management the output has to be right and it has to look the same every time. The second of those is the part that was never a good use of an analyst.

What's next

Consistency as a deliverable in its own right

Clients notice standardisation before they notice speed. Producing the same quality of memo regardless of who is on the file is the durable part of this.
